Abstract:
Objective:To explore the expression and clinical significance of ubiquitin-like with PHID and ring finger domains 2 (UHRF2) in intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma (ICC).Methods:The expression of UHRF2 in 138 ICC was determined by immunohistochemistry,and the relationships between UHRF2 expression with prognosis and clinicopathological features of ICC were analyzed:Results:UHRF2 was highly expressed in ICC compared with paratumorous tissues.Level of UHRF2 was associated with high AFP level (P=0.010),poor tunor differentiation (P=0.026),lymph node metastasis (P=0.001),and advanced TNM stage (P=0.019).Hevated UHRF2 expression was suggested to be associated with poor prognosis and high recurrence rate in ICC patients (P< 0.001),and multivariable analysis indicated that UHRF2 was of theprognostic indicators of ICC (P<0.05).Conclusions:High level of UHRF2 is related to the malignant phenotype of ICC,and can be a prognostic and recurrent indicator of postoperative patients.
